Key Takeaways:
Centering prayer is more than a meditation—it’s a practice of surrendering to divine presence and letting go of who you are not.
Rich explains how integrating visualization, affirmations, and journaling alongside centering prayer can help you co-create with God.
Limiting beliefs like “I’m too old,” “I’m not enough,” or “I can’t do that” often arise from fear, not truth. Centering prayer gently dismantles these by reconnecting you with your true self.
Silence is not about achieving stillness—it's about showing up consistently. Even when the practice feels uneventful, transformation is happening beneath the surface.
Rich emphasizes the importance of daily contemplative time—even 5 minutes a day—to rebalance our fast-paced lives with calm, clarity, and purpose.
